One of my earliest childhood memories is sitting on top of the counter in the kitchen and mixing up cookie dough with my parents. We always made cookies often during the holidays. When I smell the aroma of cookies baking I am brought back to those memories. I love to bake cookies with my kids during the holidays so they can share in those memories with me! These Mini Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cream Pies are one of our new favorite cookies to bake. The Quaker whole grain oats, peanut butter and chocolate chips are a comfort food for me. They are so good!
Another part of my childhood memories involving cookies is the canister of Quaker Oats that we always bought for making Oatmeal cookies. I was surprised to see the Quaker man (aka Larry) wearing a scarf on the new Limited Edition Quaker Oats canister at Target. I thought it was a nice touch for this time of year and it made me chuckle. There is also a winter tree scene in the background too!
You can find the limited edition winter graphics on Quaker Oats Old Fashioned Oats 42oz & Quaker Oats Quick Oats 42oz products exclusively at Target. Make sure to grab these coupons for Quaker Oats before heading to your Target store.
I thought I would try my hand at a new recipe for this holiday season using the Oats I bought at Target. These mini cream pies are the perfect size for gift giving, holiday pot lucks or just to have for dessert at home. The cookie part by itself tastes great, but the peanut butter cream inside is a nice finishing touch. You can omit the peanut butter if needed for a peanut allergy.
I love how these turned out! We served them at a party recently and I should have grabbed one for myself before they were gone!!! Good thing I will be making these again soon! 🙂
